seals have gone somewhere can any of you guys tell me which ones part numbers tools required or if there is any how toos on the forum
didnt check passenger side plugs becuse of access any help would be great,,,,

very very very common leak on the v6 mig is the cam cover gaskets, they get hard & brittle over time.

Breather system can get blocked which exacerbates the problem

thanks guys will start with breather clean and change my oil aswell , will do cam seals sooner rather than later thanks

do it sooner rather than later as leaving leads wallowing in an oil bath will not only knacker the leads but eventually the DIS pack will be FUBAR.

Ps the dis is hidden behind passenger side cylinder head and a pain to get to without removing the scuttle
